Shep's "I Love You Too" is Finished!

I've worked longer on "I Love You Too" the second longest of any painting I've ever worked on.  I could never get the beautiful hills the sweet couple are gazing at correct.  It always looked like a wall instead of the beautiful outdoors.

Recently I was in an art show and my painting "All In Vain" received a 2nd Place ribbon in the Professional Oil class.  I was beaten by a beautiful still life painted by my original teacher, Tina Szajko.  You always want to win, but to get beaten by an amazing artist like Tina is never a bad thing.        This painting didn't receive a prize so I asked Tina to give some advice as to how to make the work.  She took one look and said to add a sky.  I've added a sky and now I love it.  The painting now extends to infinity.  I hope you all love it too.

About Me

My photo
My name is Bob Shepherd, but when I paint I'm known as "Shep". I love to paint people. Happy people. Sad people. People dancing. People in contemplation. Old people. Young people. Lately I've gotten into painting new things and I'm enjoying the challenge. Flowers and still life's have been fun. My blog is here to show you what I'm doing and how I'm doing it. If I'm doing your commission you can follow the progress of your "PortraitbyShep". If you'd like me to do your portrait please notify me through the blog. Please enter your email above and I hope you enjoy the blog. Shep
